TECHNICAL FIELD

The present disclosure relates to the technical field of computer graphics, and in particular to, a method and an apparatus for protecting privacy of an ophthalmic patient and a storage medium.

BACKGROUND

With the increasing popularity of digitalization, digital treatment attracts wide attention. Digital treatment is a new approach to integrating an information technology into the whole treatment process. However, digital treatment brings about some problems, for example, how to protect privacy of a patient. How to better protect the privacy of a patient becomes an urgent problem to be resolved. Currently, because facial information digitally shows disease signs, and inevitably reserves sensitive biometric identification information, how to precisely distinguish sensitive biometric identification information from facial information is a major technical difficulty in the field of face privacy protection.

An existing method for protecting the privacy of an ophthalmic patient is mainly to cover a privacy region of an image including identification information. However, in this method, identification information in an uncovered region cannot be removed, and it is likely to lose case feature information included in a covered region, resulting in difficulty in protecting the privacy of the ophthalmic patient without affecting doctor's diagnosis.

Persons of ordinary skill in the art may understand specific meanings of the foregoing terms in the present disclosure based on a specific situation.

Referring to FIG. 1 , in a first embodiment of the present disclosure, a method for protecting privacy of an ophthalmic patient is provided, the method including the following steps:

S1. Acquire an examination video of an ophthalmic patient.

In this embodiment of the present disclosure, the ophthalmic patients include a strabismus patient, a patient with thyroid-associated ophthalmopathy (TAO), a nystagmus patient, a patient with ptosis, and the like. The examination video may be obtained when pathological features of a patient are acquired by using a camera device, where the examination video is generally a color video, and the examination video includes the pathological features and non-pathological features of a face.

S2. Extract image features of each frame of images in the examination video, perform region division on each frame of the images according to position information of organs in the image features, and obtain a region to be precisely reconstructed and a region to be roughly reconstructed according to a region division result.

In this embodiment of the present disclosure, image features in each frame of the images are automatically extracted by using a pre-trained neural network. The image features include position information of organs of a face, such as position information of eyes, position information of eyebrows, position information of a nose, and position information of a mouth. In this embodiment of the present disclosure, each frame of the images is divided into a plurality of image regions according to the position information, and a region to be precisely reconstructed and a region to be roughly reconstructed are then obtained in the image regions in combination with case features required for a disease of an ophthalmic patient. It should be noted that the region to be precisely reconstructed includes main pathological features for diagnosing an ophthalmic disease, mainly including morphology and motion features of eyeballs and eyelids. The region to be roughly reconstructed includes features that are not related to the eye disease and identification features that are less related to the eye disease, such as a nose and a mouth. In this embodiment of the present disclosure, a region to be precisely reconstructed and a region to be roughly reconstructed are obtained according to the region division result, so that when three-dimensional (3D) face reconstruction with different precision is subsequently performed according to the region to be precisely reconstructed and the region to be roughly reconstructed, most of identification features of the ophthalmic patient can be covered while reserving most of case features of the ophthalmic patient, thereby protecting the privacy of the ophthalmic patient without affecting doctor's diagnosis.

S3. Perform 3D reconstruction on the region to be precisely reconstructed and the region to be roughly reconstructed, to obtain 3D reconstruction data corresponding to each frame of the images.

In this embodiment of the present disclosure, during 3D reconstruction, for the region to be precisely reconstructed, a parameter of a 3D reconstruction model with relatively high precision is solved; for the region to be roughly reconstructed, a parameter of the 3D reconstruction model with relatively low precision is solved; and a matrix vector operation is performed on a basis of the 3D reconstruction model and the parameters obtained through solving, to output 3D reconstruction data of each frame of the images. The basis of the 3D reconstruction model may be a template of the 3D reconstruction model with different semantics but the same topology, different 3D reconstruction data may be formed through linear combination with each other, and the matrix vector operation may be a matrix vector multiplication operation.

S4. Render all the 3D reconstruction data into a 3D reconstruction video.

In this embodiment of the present disclosure, the 3D reconstruction data may be rendered into a 3D reconstruction video by using a renderer for a doctor to make a diagnosis. During reconstruction of the whole video, the doctor can see only the 3D reconstruction video obtained through rendering instead of the examination video. That is, during this process, most of face features, name information, and the like of the patient are not seen by the doctor, thereby effectively protecting the privacy of the ophthalmic patient.

In an embodiment, the acquiring an examination video of the ophthalmic patient includes:

acquiring an alternate cover test video and a cover-uncover test video of a strabismus patient at a preset examination distance, where the preset examination distance is determined according to a requirement of a doctor;

acquiring an ocular motility video of a patient with TAO, measurements of the ocular motility video are taken in the nine diagnostic positions of gaze, where the preset examination distance is determined according to a requirement of a doctor;

selecting a corresponding examination distance according to an age group of a nystagmus patient, and acquiring a primary position (fixating straight) video of the nystagmus patient according to the examination distance, where the corresponding examination distance is determined according to a requirement of a doctor; and

acquiring a video of measurement of levator excursion (downgaze and upgaze) of a patient with ptosis, where the preset examination distance is determined according to a requirement of a doctor.

In this embodiment of the present disclosure, a device for acquiring the examination video may be at least one of a camera, a video camera, and a mobile terminal, and all the acquired examination videos are color videos, to improve the accuracy of feature extraction.

In an embodiment, the performing 3D reconstruction on the region to be precisely reconstructed and the region to be roughly reconstructed, to obtain 3D reconstruction data corresponding to each frame of the images specifically includes:

constructing a discrete constraint item according to a discrete feature in the image features, constructing a continuous constraint item according to a continuous feature in the image features, and combining the discrete constraint item and the continuous constraint item into a nonlinear optimization problem;

determining parameters of a 3D reconstruction model by solving the nonlinear optimization problem, where the parameters specifically include a set of shape parameters and a set of motion parameters; and

solving a first parameter for reconstructing the region to be precisely reconstructed, from the parameters, and solving a second parameter for reconstructing the region to be roughly reconstructed, from the parameters.

In this embodiment of the present disclosure, the first parameter is a parameter with relatively high precision, and the second parameter is a parameter with relatively low precision. The first parameter is used for performing precise reconstruction on the region to be precisely reconstructed, and the second parameter is used for performing rough reconstruction on the region to be roughly reconstructed.

A matrix vector operation is performed according to a basis of the 3D reconstruction model, the first parameter, and the second parameter, to obtain the 3D reconstruction data corresponding to each frame of the images.

In an embodiment, the performing 3D reconstruction on the region to be precisely reconstructed and the region to be roughly reconstructed, to obtain 3D reconstruction data corresponding to each frame of the images further includes:

performing occlusion detection on each frame of the images in the examination video by using a pre-trained neural network, to obtain an occlusion detection result of each frame of the images.

In a specific implementation, the occlusion detection result includes four types, namely, left occlusion, right occlusion, bilateral occlusion, and no occlusion.

3D reconstruction data of a previous frame is used as 3D reconstruction data of a current frame when the occlusion detection result is the bilateral occlusion.

When a case in which there is the bilateral occlusion in the image is detected, to avoid error reconstruction caused by unreliable image features, 3D reconstruction data of a previous frame is used as 3D reconstruction data of a current frame. For example, in an alternate cover test of strabismus, an eye region is occluded in the case of the bilateral occlusion, but image features in the occluded region are unreliable.

In an embodiment, the performing 3D reconstruction on the region to be precisely reconstructed and the region to be roughly reconstructed, to obtain 3D reconstruction data corresponding to each frame of the images further includes:

transferring a deformation state of an eyebrow region from a face model to the 3D reconstruction data by using a deformation transfer technology. The deformation transfer technology includes a Laplace deformation technology and a triangular mesh deformation transfer technology.

When the ophthalmic patient suffers from a TAO, in an ocular motility video of the TAO, measurements of the ocular motility video are taken in the nine diagnostic positions of gaze, motion of eyebrows is beneficial to diagnosis of the TAO. In this embodiment of the present disclosure, a deformation state of an eyebrow region is transferred from a face model to final 3D reconstruction data by using a deformation transfer technology, which can effectively reserve case features of the TAO, and can also protect the privacy of the patient without affecting doctor's diagnosis.

In an embodiment, the rendering the 3D reconstruction data into a 3D reconstruction video specifically includes:

rendering the 3D reconstruction data of each frame of the images into a corresponding 2D image under a preset condition, and performing image synthesis processing on the 2D images to obtain the 3D reconstruction video.

In an embodiment, the preset condition includes a preset virtual camera and a lighting environment.

The following beneficial effects are included during implementation of the embodiments of the present disclosure:

Advantage 1: In this embodiment of the present disclosure, only a few of identification features are reserved while most of pathological features are reserved, thereby effectively protecting privacy of an ophthalmic patient without affecting doctor's diagnosis. Through clinician tests, the embodiments of the present disclosure have good performance in four common ophthalmic diseases involving an eye appearance, and can meet daily diagnosis requirements, including ptosis, nystagmus, strabismus, and TAO; and different from conventional manners of photo coverage and cutting, identification of the patient in a 3D reconstruction video finally obtained in this embodiment of the present disclosure cannot be identified by relatives and friends of the patient, and an original face image cannot be restored either by using the 3D reconstruction video finally obtained in this embodiment of the present disclosure, thereby further protecting the privacy of the patient.

Advantage 2: The embodiments of the present disclosure have a simple requirement for a device, and only require an input single-view color video, instead of a depth camera or a multi-view color camera array.

Advantage 3: Different from conventional two-dimensional (2D) planar image processing, the 3D reconstruction video in this embodiment of the present disclosure can reserve more disease features.

Advantage 4: Statistical analysis shows that the embodiments of the present disclosure can effectively improve the willingness of the patient to cooperate in collecting eye appearance image information, thereby facilitating the improvement of medical records and implementing long-term follow-up of a patient's condition.

Advantage 5: Medical face image information is always unstructured data, and the 3D reconstruction video obtained through digital processing in this embodiment of the present disclosure is beneficial to the standardization and structural unification of medical information, and is beneficial to clinical research and the development of a new medical artificial intelligence system.
